[PATCH] RLIMIT_AS checking fix
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Address bug #4508: there's potential for wraparound in the various places
where we perform RLIMIT_AS checking.

(I'm a bit worried about acct_stack_growth().  Are we sure that vma->vm_mm is
always equal to current->mm?  If not, then we're comparing some other
process's total_vm with the calling process's rlimits).
